Video-Enabled Worker Safety Solution Delivers Complete Driver Protection With Six-Second Response Time

Following a live trial undertaken in collaboration with Geotab, a global leader in connected vehicle and asset management solutions, the service recorded an average pick-up time of just 6 seconds for all raised alarms that occurred both in and outside the vehicle.

“By integrating our video telematics platform with Peoplesafe’s Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), we can provide drivers with a quick and easy way to request assistance in an emergency,” explains Sam Footer, Partnership Director at SureCam. “These latest results demonstrate the effectiveness of the solution, which combines rapid response with complete visibility of emergency incidents as they unfold.”

The video-enabled worker safety service allows a driver to raise an alarm via an SOS app or device when away from the vehicle or using an in-vehicle panic button when behind the wheel. The ARC verifies each alert received, based on whether it is a pressed panic alarm, fall detection, expired timer or triggered camera event, so it can be handled appropriately.  SureCam’s cameras also allow ARC controllers to see what has happened at the front, rear or inside of the vehicle, while providing indisputable audio and visual evidence should any matter progress to court.
